Hiking
If you leave the car park, you find yourself in a forest with numerous streams that have dug themselves more or less deeply into the terrain. The forest is classified as a "woodrush beech forest" habitat type, although in addition to common beeches, there are numerous oaks and also pines. The herb layer that gives the forest its name provides information about the nature of the soil: the white woodrush prefers shady places on nutrient-poor, acidic soils.
The forest is used for forestry.
